Unit focus

  • Pronouns help sentences connect without repeating the same noun. Readers must still be able to tell who or what each pronoun refers to.
  • Use this routine: Name person or thing → Replace carefully → Check reference → Remove repetition.
  • Watch for unclear pronoun reference: Repeat the noun if the reader may not know who she, he, they or it means.
